Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At PEI Brick Company, we believe that cryptocurrency gambling and all forms of gaming should be enjoyed purely as entertainment. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. It should only be undertaken with money you can afford to lose, as part of a balanced lifestyle.
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting players in making informed decisions about their participation.
Age Verification & Legal Requirements
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your Canadian province) to participate in gambling activities on affiliated platforms. Age verification is mandatory and required by law.
If you are under the legal age, please do not use gambling services. Parents and guardians should monitor internet usage and discuss the risks of gambling with young people.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Be aware of these warning signs that may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling with increasing amounts of money
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Neglecting work, school, family, or social responsibilities
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Experiencing anxiety, irritability, or mood changes related to gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or control gambling
- Using gambling to escape stress, problems, or negative emotions
- Lying about the extent of gambling activities
- Risking or losing important relationships, jobs, or opportunities
If you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, professional help is available and encouraged.
Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features
Most reputable gambling platforms offer built-in tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a limit on losses you are willing to sustain before taking a break
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or session cutoffs to limit consecutive play time
- Reality Checks: Enable periodic notifications to remind you how long you've been playing and your spending
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from an account for a period of time or permanently
- Account Cooling-Off Period: Request a temporary pause before account reactivation
Use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gaming habits. Contact platform support if you need assistance enabling or adjusting these features.
